    Default Touch up my razor?

    I recently bought my first straight razor on this forum and being no exception to the rule I fear I've messed up my edge during stropping.
    Do you guys know anyone in Belgium who could bring my razor back to live?

    Wow, blast from the past
    Thanks for the offer.
    I got my razor checked out by another member and apparently my edge wasn't messed up at all.
    I just had too high expectations being used to a Feather AC SS.
    As I didn't want to lower my expectations, I just went back to my Feather.

    The feather is a fine shavette and I own 2 of them. But I can get just as close of a shave with a real straight.
    It's just Sharpening, right?

    Just for the record: i sharpen up to 160K with Borium on kanguroo strop. This edge on a SR is equal to feather, no question!
